kim taehyung

taehyung was never too sure about this whole soulmate madness, and it may seem crazy, but jimin was the one to change his mind. it's scary though, because what if jimin doesn't feel the same way? or what if jimin isn't really the one, and the connection he felt was fake. they haven't known each other for a while, so it felt strange to taehyung. but isn't that what finding a soulmate is about? from the start they're different, and it only escalated from there.

was jimin different? taehyung couldn't recall. all he knows is that he wishes for some type of response from the elder.

"hey, mom," taehyung chirped, hopping onto one of the counter chairs.

"afternoon, bud," jada smiled widely, her teeth glowing. "how long will jimin be staying?" the question was so absurd. he wasn't prepared to answer.

"well.. uh.. i don't know. jimin.. jimin and i just want to become better friends, you know! and i'm helping him out a bit because he's done a lot for me! just returning the favor," taehyung didn't really know what he was saying, but he hoped his mom bought it.

"okay.. whatever you say. just don't get yourself in any trouble! not that you would. but jimin is a total sweetheart. keep him around a while, kay?" taehyung's mother ruffled the youngers hair, shooing him off to go find jimin.

"keep him around a while..." taehyung couldn't stop repeating those words. what if he didn't want to keep him around? what if the reason he doesn't want him around is because it's hurting him. he just wants to figure out his own feelings, as well as jimin's feelings, but the elder is being an ass and not giving any reaction. but then again, maybe no reaction is how he feels. maybe jimin feels nothing.

"stop, taehyung," the blue haired boy spoke to himself. "you've only known each other for a few months, barely. just help him out and let him go." taehyung looked up to find jimin still asleep in bed. jimin was on top of the covers, wearing little shorts and an oversized t-shirt. his legs were curled in, and he hugged his arms. jimin was adorable.

taehyung didn't know how much longer jimin would sleep like this, so he decided he'd start drawing the elder. had nothing else to do anyways. he pulled out his sketchbook and pencils and started drawing. taehyung never knew what he was doing when it came to art, he just went with the flow. his mechanical pencil guided his hand across the page, creating shadows and curvy lines which eventually created jimin. some people may look at the scribbles on the page and think that it's easy, babies could do that. but in reality, if the smallest line was off by an inch, the whole portrait would be ruined. which is why taehyung was proud of this work.

after smiling at the piece for a few moments, he closed his sketchbook and put everything away.

the fluff ball still wasn't awake.

"agh, whatever," taehyung yawned, tired of waiting for jimin. he just carefully laid himself on the bed next to the elder. taehyung was startled when jimin rolled to face him, but he was still asleep. the younger slowly inched closer, letting the smaller snuggle into his chest.

taehyung heart started to beat rapidly. he's so warm.

little did taehyung know, the boy under him was smiling like an idiot.
